Audio track gone solo?

So, I was just happily editing my movie when my cat ran across the keyboard. From now on, all my audio except the ones in the "narration" track don't play. It's as if my cat pressed something and made just the audio track turn solo. I'm a fairly advanced user on premiere so I tried all the audio mixing options, resetting preferences, checking the files properties, checking the audio gain and so on. I tried restarting premiere as well, but nothing changed. Any ideas of what has happened...? Thanks in advance. Oh, and I should add that if I move other audio to the narrations track, it plays.

Thinking about the Audio issue, we have ruled out a Mute setting in the Audio Mixer, but let's take a quick look on the Timeline, for the "muted" Audio, please. However, I would like to look at the Audio Mixer one more time. This time, play your Timeline, and watch the sliders for all Tracks. Do they all remain at about 0 dB, or do they move, or perhaps remain at a negative setting? The Audio Mixer will show the Track Audio settings, and the dB responses for those Tracks.
Also, looking at one of the Clips, that has no sound, when on certain Tracks, with the Clip Keyframe Display set to Volume, where is the orange line ("rubberband") - the one that runs THROUGH the Clip? Is that Volume line down at the bottom of the Clip, or up at about the 75% position?
This image shows the line, that I am referring to:
While it would be tough to drag that line down (lowering the Volume) with kitty on the keyboard, it's easy to accidently do, if one clicks on certain areas of a Clip.
Now, I think that we will probably rule this out too, as the Volume "rubberband" control would be on a Clip-by-Clip basis, and you seem to have Track issues.
Just thinking about possibilities.
Good luck,
Hunt

Audio Tracks Soloing By Themselves

I am having a problem with Logic Pro 9. Different audio tracks are soloing randomly during playback. I would grateful for any assistance. Thanks again.

What I mean is in the automation window I can see it soloin by itelf. But there is no automation that I have penciled in. Futhermore I've just disccovered that it solo's by itself only on an audio track that is selected. It happens if I'm on an audio track both in the arrange window and in the mixer.
Please if you have an answers I would be grateful.
Thanks again....

How have I lost the green Audio track that used to be below the Video clips?

Soloed Audio Tracks Won't Play Logic 9.1.8 - Background Still Does

I have a 59 track session in Logic 9.1.8. I've encountered a very odd problem. Multiple audio tracks, even when soloed, will not play; however background audio/other tracks still do. For instance, I've imported a rough vocal track to the mix and when I solo the track, I do not the vocals however I hear kick drum and piano tracks which have been muted. I have double checked every audio track's output, automation, etc…and read several other posts to try and find anyone with a similar issue, to no avail.
Some specs - the majority of the tracks are imported Audio, I have attempted to solve the issue from my MacBook Pro (2013) AND from my studio system. All of the audio and session information are stored on our dropbox server, however other projects still work fine.
Here's where it gets super weird - I even tried started the session over again and just importing in the audio tracks from scratch and there is STILL a problem - I imported 5 of the drum tracks - kick, hat, snare, taiko, and noise percussion. When I solo the taiko track, I hear the audio from the kick track and NO AUDIO from the taiko track, and this is a BRAND NEW SESSION.
Someone PLEASE HELP.

In Logic's preferences/Audio... Is Universal Track Mode enabled? It should be.

Missing Audio track controls (fader, solo, mute, sends, inserts etc...)

After doing a "save as project" I ended up with 2 big problems. When I pull the song off the CDR and open it up on my computer the controls for some audio tracks are missing. I lose anything having to do with track control such as input, output, fade, solo, pan, inserts, buses, mute, record. The only thing i can see is the group assignment and automation pull down menus. The other problem i have is that i have to manually relink all the audio files. Why can't the session file find the audio files??? They are all in the audio files folder right next to the session file. Arg. i am running logic pro 7 and the computer that the "save project" was completed on is running logic 6 express 6.4.0.

I'll take a stab at it.
Sounds like your parameters are not viewed. In the arrange window menus - there should be a view menu and it allows you select what things to see for each track.
Maybe view parameters or view channel strip only settings may help.
Not sitting in front of Logic at the moment.
May have something to do with goign from L6 to L7,but i'm only guessing on that one.
hope this helps

Audio Track has gone white - cant hear it, please help!

Hi
One of my audio tracks has been highlighted white and will not play back. I have soloed the track and it wont play even though i can see the data (wave) in the region. The track is also not muted. Is the data accesible again?
Please help,
Thanks
Jonny Spall

Is the data accesible again?
Probably, it is maybe muted (does it have a bullet in it's name?-there are several places to mute). It an also be muted with the light blue "M" button-your description is a little cofusing though.

Crashes due to soloing audio tracks?

Has anybody else experienced problems with Premiere having a hard time dealing with soloing and muting audio tracks? We've been having periodic crashes throughout our project and we're narrowing down the problems as much as we can. We're using 4K multi cam sequences with three cameras, which is already a beast for the computers to handle, but we're working on the most recent iMac and a new Mac Pro. Both with 24G RAM. The problem most likely has something to do with Premiere and not the computers. We're thinking either corrupt media/project, or it's something to do with the audio mixer having trouble with soloing and muting.
Does this sound familiar to anyone else?

Hi Nathan,
This is the first I've heard of this. Can you please file a bug report? http://adobe.ly/ReportBug
It will be read by our staff and we will try to replicate the issue to provide a fix.
Hopefully, others pushing 3 or more 4K streams using multicam on the new Mac Pro can report back, as well.
Thanks,
Kevin

Why I have to mute Audio Voice Recording Track always in order to subdue the voice recorded when I want to solo other tracks, audio or midi for listening.The other audio tracks don't sound without being muted. Please advise how to deal with this .Thanks

Why I have to mute the Audio Voice recording track ( the first voice track ) always in order to sudue its recorded sound while I want to listen to other
tracks ( either audio or midi tracks ) in solo ?The other audio tracks with voice recording do not have to be muted in order not to interfere with other
tracks turned on solo. Can someone kindly explain this phenomenon and any way to fix this ?
Thanks
Dan

Thanks, ATR,
I wll try this--but I still am unclear on how to do what the Manual says is possible: select clips on another track that WILL be moved, if I so desire, so as to remain synched to the main Video track.
UPDATE:
In the case of inserting Freeze Frame, I just tried both Ctrl method and Alt method, and neither worked.
1. Put Video on Vid1 track
2. Put Music on Sound Track
3. Ran a few seconds of Vid
4. Stopped Vid, selected Freeze Frame
5. Held down Ctrl key while clicking "Insert in Movie" also tried with holding down Alt key.
Result: a 3 second still was inserted int the Vid1 track. A corresponding gap was created in the Sound Track.
6. Slid the final part of the Sound Track to the left along the timeline to re-connect it to the next segment created by the above process.
Result: the video following the final Freeze Frame was pushed to the right end of Video1 track.
7. Slid the Sound Track all the way to the left.
Result: the entire Video 1 Track contents were pushed to the right and divided in pieces.
I documented each step with screen shots which I can send if you want them and if I can figure out how to do it.
UPDATE #2
In the case of inserting a video clip to the Timeline, I just tried both Ctrl method and Alt method, and neither worked.
1. Locate video in Project Assets
2a. R click video in Project Assets (pull-down menu appears), hold down Ctrl, click Insert to Timeline.
Result: Vid clip is inserted on Video 1 track, Sound Track is separated with a corresponding gap.
2b. R click video in Project Assets (pull-down menu appears), push Alt
Result: pull-down menu disappears as soon as Alt is pushed down.
I can stil drag the Vid clip but it's one more manual step...I love shortcuts!!

Audio Stereo track gone

Working FCP3, Suddenly not able to put complete clip into timeline, only video and one track of audio. Second audio track has disappeared. Everything worked fine earlier, I did some audio filter work on a few clips but don't think that caused the problem. Also have an older audio clips where one track is ahead of the other by a few seconds and nothing I can do seems to bring them back together??

If you are talking about placing a clip that you know has both tracks into a timeline and only one track is coming is try this:
Make sure the track source dohickies for both audio tracks are connected to a destination track. They are the little square things on the left side of the track that look either connected or disconnected (look just to the right of the green audio mute buttons). Both need to be connected for both audio tracks to come in.
To deal with your mismatched audio try this:
The audio tracks need to be disconnected from the video and to be NOT a stereo pair. Try Shift + L to unlink the video from the audio, then Option + L to turn the stereo pair to dual mono.
Once the audio tracks are dual mono, you should be able to slip them back into sync.
Apply the toggles in reverse order to return the dual mono to a stereo pair and to relink the audio to the video.

Logic pro 9,record ready has gone for audio tracks,can't record now.

I upgraded from Logic 8 to logic pro 9 back in october,everything was fine no probs.I have come back to record after a month away & now there is no record ready for audio tracks on any page,they're there for instruments & midi tracks.All else seems fine - just can't record! Also is there any way of getting help from apple,can't see anywhere to contact them without paying!! can anyone help with this?,tis the season of frustration....

You have to select an Input device in the Audio preferences. Since Logic 9 you can assign different devices for In- and Output. So make a selection there and everything will be fine.

Issues with 'Mute' in Audio Track

Hi All
1. Using Premiere Pro CC (Fully Up to Date)
Was wondering if I could get assistance with what I believe is an issue with the Mute Button in an Audio Track. Firstly my understanding is that, if I use the 'Mute' button either in the Audio Mixer or the icon in the Timeline to mute a clip or track, it is only a temporary action and once you uncheck mute the track reverts back to it state before the Mute.ie normal audio. I have been doing some voice overs directly into the timeline using a USB Microphone / Headset and on those occasions have gone through the steps of Arming, Solo (The Voice Over Track) and then record. I am not sure if this is related but just included to give a background. When checking the levels and doing a bit of fine tuning I find the following issue. As the play head moves along the timeline if goes into a Mute condition and also appear in the Audio Mixer as Mute. It is though it is seeing a 'key frame' that tells it to mute at that point, hence my earlier question regarding (when Mute, is it temporary). I immediately uncheck Mute but when I recheck over that area of the video it is On/Off On /Off. I have tried to see if there are 'key frames / markers that indicate start and end of "Mute' in that Audio track but no luck.
Am I correct in the assumption that mute is a temporary action and should not be a permanent action at that point, or have I done something to create this issue.
Thanks for any advise.

I just read some related threads and I am beginning to suspect the action of the 'Solo' function could be causing the issue. I can not say for certain but I did some other VO in another sequence in the same project and only used the 'Mute" in the other tracks, not using Solo didn't seem to have this issue. Then I did a bit of reading in an earlier CS3 manual that advised using 'Solo' now I seem to have this issue. I totally agree have tried different audio, removing area of offending audio but still comes back??????

Audio Tracks will not play

Hi there,
I'm using FCP 7 for a project that was originally edited in Final Cut 6 (I had to switch to 7 because BOTH my computers at home have crashed today which use FCP6, now I'm up at my office and have to use 7 - bad day, I know).
I'm trying to do some sound edits and only one audio track is playing (tracks 3 and 4) which are the source audio from the XDCAM Footage (note, these tracks have not been soloed - if that's a word). All my other tracks are not working. When played they produce no sound, but the audio meters to the right are moving. When played in quicktime, iTunes, or Finder they do indeed still work.
Audio Output has been set to Default, though I've also tried Built-in Audio Output. I'm using headphones, but it also does not play through the computer. I've also tried speakers. All other audio on the computer is fine - my volume is up.
Sometimes I can get tracks one and two to play after re-rendering.
RT is set to Unlimited, but it also doesn't work with Safe RT.
Any insight into this issue would be much appreciated!
Thanks

Go to Sequence Settings...then the AUDIO TAB. How many tracks of audio do you have? More than 2 and STEREO?
If you right-click on the track patch area on the timeline, you can assign these tracks to audio ouputs...are they set to anything other than 1 or 2?

How can I export an audio track with just the effect signal without the audio?

I want to export dry audio tracks and their effects signals as separate tracks. For instance a track with a reverbed snare would be one track with the dry snare and one with just the reverb.
I know from people who use Reason that it's just a box you need to tick, but I'm struggling to find out how to do it in Logic. Surely it must be a way?

I don't remember Reason being that straight forward, but the obvious way to go, is to mute all sends and bounce.
Then solo the reverb channel, in aux, checking it isn't shared by other sources, and bounce. You should have a dry and a reverbed signal, at your convenience.

How can I export an audio track

I have made an audio track with three songs in GB and now I want to export it and use it as a track for a Keynote slideshow.
How can I export it as AAC or similar?

How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I turned on the duplicate tracks for editing ?

How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I edit or listen to the duplicate tracks in Logic Pro 9 ?
I'm using iMac desktop with Mac OS X Version 10.7.3. Pls advise.

Dan,
It sounds like one of your preferences has changed.
Go to preferences > audio > general, and make sure "track mute/solo" is set to "CPU saving (slow response)". It is probably set to "Fast " at the moment.
This setting (fast) basically causes immediate muting from the channel strip while your song is in play. This is because the audio is still being read from the hard drive, but the channel strip is simply muted.... like a hardware mixer. When set to "CPU saving", the audio from that track, when muted, is actually stopped from streaming from the hard drive, but there is a couple second delay before the audio is actually muted.
One would think that the fast setting is generally preferable, except when you need to do what you are doing. The only way to keep duplicate copies of channel strips acting independent of one another is to leave this setting on the "CPU saving" setting.
Hope that helps
